BlueSky Positioning enables GPS for Java applications in a range of non-GPS phones
BlueSky Positioning, the A-GPS solutions provider for the SIM card industry, today announced the availability of the secure JSR 177 A-GPS Applications Programming Interface (API). This will allow certified Java applications in mobile phones to use the satellite positioning functionality of an A-GPS SIM card, extending the location based services (LBS) market to wide range of phones without GPS capabilities, whilst maintaining privacy and security.
The interface allows operators and LBS application developers to expand their portfolio of existing and new location-based applications, such as turn-by-turn navigation, to non-GPS enabled mobile phones with as little as ten lines of modified code. The A-GPS API enables simple and rapid integration and creates a huge potential market of GPS enabled devices ready for LBS applications.
